TVS - Diodes

The Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) Diode is a device that is designed to protect sensitive electronic components from damage due to voltage spikes. The device works by absorbing excessive transient voltage that could otherwise damage the component. The most common type of TVS diode is the ESD122DMXR, which is designed to protect components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) events and is a popular choice for many electronic applications. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the ESD122DMXR.

ESD122DMXR is mainly used in applications such as aerospace, transportation, automotive, industrial, portable devices, computers, communication, medical and consumer electronics. The device is mainly used for ESD protection, which is a very common application, but can also be used to protect against electrical fast transients (EFT) or other transient voltages. The device has a fast response time, making it suitable for many applications where fast response times are required. The device also offers excellent clamping capability, which allows it to protect against high-voltage transient spikes.

In terms of the working principle, ESD122DMXR is designed with multiple layers of metal oxide that are used to reduce the capacitance of the diode. This is important as it means that when there is a voltage increase, the diode will be able to begin absorbing the excess voltage before it reaches the critical level that could otherwise damage the component. The diode is also designed to dissipate this excess energy, thus avoiding any permanent damage to the component.

As well as dissipating the excess voltage, the ESD122DMXR is also able to suppress the voltage level by clamping it. This can be done in one of two ways. The first is called “passive” clamping, where a pre-defined voltage is established and any unexpected voltage levels are quickly clamped down to this level. The second is called “active” clamping, where the transient voltage is actively monitored and actively clamped down as soon as it is detected.

In addition, the ESD122DMXR is designed with an internal ESD protection element that prevents any voltage from passing through any other circuitry. This helps to ensure that any damage caused by a transient voltage spike is contained to the diode itself, and not to any other component of the circuit. The device also features an inverse-parallel (IP) structure, which helps to eliminate any reflections or echo effects, thus ensuring that any transient voltage is clamped quickly and accurately.

Overall, the ESD122DMXR is a popular choice for many applications due to its robust design and fast response times. It offers excellent clamping capability, high ESD protection and an IP structure that helps to reduce reflections and echoes. Although it is primarily used for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, the device is also suitable for other transient voltage applications such as electrical fast transients (EFT) and surge protection.
